Makeup Revolution Mint Chocolate Palette

So many Makeup Revolution Palettes are being released recently that I can barely keep up! Just one of the most recent ones is the I Heart Makeup Mint Chocolate. It’s is available now for £8.99 on the tambeauty website, as well as Superdrug, online and in stores! I only have one other of the chocolate palettes (here) but they all have 16 shades, with this one having a mixture of matte, duo chrome and shimmer eyeshadows ranging from neutrals to warm. It’s perfect for creating autumnal looks! It was the duochrome shades that really caught my eye. None of palettes have this finish (I have my eyes on the Barry M Meteorite palette) so I felt I needed it…

First of all, I’m not a huge fan of the packaging on this one but I couldn’t not buy it just becasue of that. The colour pay off and feel of these shadows more than make up for it! You can’t see much of the duo-chrome goodness in these swatches but they’re absolutely stunning IRL. Lust & Rivals might just be my favourite but honestly? There’s not one shade I don’t like. The mattes shades are beautiful and smooth too – no chalkiness here! I didn’t even have any trouble with the lighter shades (Confession & Tea); I normally find the pale ones have a really crappy formula. I haven’t had the chance to wear this yet but the shadows blend really well (I tried them on my arm) and can’t wait to have a proper play. Look out for a (maybe some) makeup look(s) on my Instagram soon!

Have you seen all the other palettes released!? I’ve got my eye on Chocolate Elixir and Rose Gold chocolate palettes and the Life on the Dancefloor Guestlist palette! I already have Flawless 4 and Party in my swatch pile – coming soon!

UPDATE:

I did a look using this palette! Shades: Interrupted, Poison Ivy, Rivals, Commotion and Disturbance. Check out the full look on my Instagram – @tippedoffnails!

The colours are gorgeous! Not at all what I would expect by the look of the packaging, which can’t say I am the biggest fan of either… But I guess it’s right what they say: you shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover. Definitely gonna check this out the next time I go to England!
